Federal Criminal Practice
This course addresses various issues related to criminal procedure and the criminal process, and it frequently analyzes them through the lens of the modern complex federal criminal case. Modern criminal organizations present unique challenges to the criminal justice system, both in terms of the substantive law that has developed to address organized criminal activity and in terms of the procedures by which persons charged with such criminal misconduct are tried. In part, the course will focus upon both the prosecution of and representation of clients charged with business crimes, including corporate criminal liability. Issues covered during the class include questions relating to grand jury practice, electronic monitoring and investigative techniques, substantive federal law of conspiracy and RICO, evidentiary matters, sentencing, and prosecutorial and judicial discretion. The course will also consider representation issues and plea negotiations. Students who do not necessarily intend to practice criminal law but who intend to represent domestic businesses will benefit from this course. Students will from time to time be called upon in class to advocate the positions of the government and the defense. Prerequisites: Evidence and Criminal Procedure are useful but not required. Evaluation: Final Examination. This is primarily a two credit, final examination course. With permission of the instructors a limited number of students may write a research paper, earning a third credit. Text: Duplicated materials.

Female Sports Fans Say Jeter is the Best
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed or follow us on Facebook. Thanks for visiting!
Who says women don't have opinions on sports? Certainly not me. And certainly not New York sports fans, who helped vote Derek Jeter to the tops of the "Best New York Athlete Ever" list.
Yes, I mean ever. Babe Ruth's legacy couldn't even hold a candle to Jeter's beautiful caramel skin and green eyes… oops I mean sports skills.
Jeter received "received 14 percent of the vote, including 17 percent of the female vote and 10 percent of the male vote. Ruth, the Hall of Fame home run hitter and one-time pitcher who retired in 1935, received 11 percent of the overall vote and topped Jeter among New York men with 14 percent."
Not surprisingly, younger voters tended toward Jeter, while the older ones voted in Ruth. Jeter had the lock on the 18 to 34 year old range, while Ruth was voted in by 50-64 year hold fans. Makes sense, since Jeter is the current Yank and Ruth is long gone. What surprised me the most was the Jeter topped even Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Mantle, and Joe Namath. Wha…?
There is a reason Jeter has the coin to build a city-like mansion: he's a great player and the Yankees pay him well. But better than Babe Ruth? Well, sure. Jeter is inching his way to get 3,000 career hits as a Yankee. If he does, he'll be the first player to do it. So I guess that should give him some credit. The thing is, I just can't help thinking that those green eyes had something to do with it too. Of course, if looks meant anything A-Rod would be on the list, and he didn't crack the top five. So maybe New York fans do know what they're talking about.

My wife was just diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer. There are no options for treatment and the doctor is recommending hospice. Can you help us find some resources for dealing with this and how we tell our family?
Ursina Teitelbaum, MD, Medical Oncologist at Penn Medicine responds:
I have many patients that live longer with hospice than they do with conventional chemotherapies so this in fact may be a life prolonging fit for her. Hospice is a program of total body care directed at managing side effects and symptoms of the cancer. This holistic approach really enables patients to live longer and feel better. Hospice organizations also provide support to the whole family so they might be a great start to research local resources and give you input on how to tell family members. I usually tell patients and their families to make the most of the time they have with loved ones and friends and to tell them sooner than later so they can have the time for meaningful discussions and closure.
Christina Bach, Oncology Social Worker at Penn Medicine adds:
You can access great information about advanced care planning and hospice care through the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization.
There is great educational information about a variety of end of life care topics as well as how to plan and how to access local hospice resources

The President of the National Assembly of Homeopathy represented the interests of the medical homeopaths on April 14, proposing legislation similar to that in Germany and France. The Supreme Court of Justice suspended the articles demanded by the Academia Médico Homeopática de Barcelona, supported by FEMH, SEMH, Dr. Ulrich Fischer, and Dr. Ton Nicolai during the legal process.

Seminoles Commit Shanks Will Take Visits
December 6th, 2011 10:40 PM║ Posted By: Josh Ward ║ Permalink
Tags: Caleb Gulledge, Florida State, Justin Thomas, Prattville Ala
Justin Shanks is committed to Florida State, but his recruitment is just beginning to heat up.
The defensive tackle from Prattville (Ala.) High School told MrSEC he still plans to take official visits to Alabama, Tennessee and Southern California along with Florida State.
Shanks, who's ranked the nation's No. 10 defensive tackle by ESPN.com, said he's continued to update Florida State's coaches on his plans to visit other schools.
"They were like, 'Go for it,'" Shanks said. "They said they want me to take my official visits. They just said save (Florida State) for last – save the best for last."
Tennessee will likely be his first visit. Shanks said he will try to visit Knoxville this month but might have to wait until January.
Shanks will have an opportunity to see a family member when he visits Tennessee. His cousin, Demarco McNeil, is an intern on the Vols' strength and conditioning staff.
"He said they need D-linemen, especially interior," Shanks said. "He said I can pretty much come in and play right away."
And playing right away is a goal for Shanks.
"I know I don't want to get redshirted," he said. "If I can, I'm going to work hard and at least get into the rotation. I pretty much want to learn the system my first year and see how it goes."
Shanks knows plenty about Alabama. He's grown up a fan of the Crimson Tide and has two teammates – defensive end Caleb Gulledge and athlete Justin Thomas – committed to Alabama.
Shanks said his teammates haven't pressured him to switch his pledge to Alabama.
"They never mention anything about it," he said.
And Alabama coach Nick Saban rarely wastes time during his conversations with Shanks.
"He can be humorous sometimes," Shanks said of Saban, "but he's strictly to the point and business-like and is going to be honest with you."
Shanks doesn't have an honest opinion on playing on the West Coast. His official visit to USC will be his first trip to California. That should give him a better idea if he'll feel comfortable playing for the Trojans.
"Wherever is best for me," he said.
And that continues to be Florida State.
Shanks said another school will have to "surprise" him to convince him to switch his commitment from the Seminoles.
"I'd say it's about 80 or 90 percent chance I still go to Florida State," he said.

Sustained Exercise Important for ChildrenBy Daniel H. Rasolt
Posted: Thursday, March 19, 2009
(Defeat Diabetes® News) -- Childhood obesity is a rising global concern, and insufficient activity levels are a primary reason. It's unknown, however, what is the optimal form of exercise for children, in order to help prevent obesity. A recent study has found that "sustained" exercise, defined as constant activity in excess of five minutes, is more beneficial than "sporadic" exercise.
Nearly 2,500 children, between 7-18 years of age, were analyzed in the study. Physical activities of these children were separated into three groups; sporadic (one to four minutes), "short" (five to nine minutes), and "medium-to-long" (10 minutes or more). Observed sustained "moderate-to-vigorous" physical activity was what separated these children, and body mass indices (BMI's) were taken to characterize which children were obese.
Dr. Ian Janssen summarizes his findings, saying "when children engage in longer periods of sustained physical activity, there is a smaller likelihood that they will be overweight or obese." It's well known that obese children are more likely to be obese adults, which increases the risk of developing potentially fatal conditions such as diabetes and heart disease.
